Indoor Air Quality

Improving the Indoor Air Quality of Your School

Many schools have poor indoor air quality. Air pollution does not only occur outdoors, it can happen inside too. When the air is polluted with mildew, dust, or mold, it can make kids sick with asthma, headaches,  rashes, and sometimes even more serious illnesses. By improving maintenance practices and creating better air circulation in your school, indoor air quality can be improved and air pollution reduced.This part of the program will help you find out whether your school has indoor air quality problems and help you fix them if you do.
